Thanks to everyone – our engaged neighbors, our consultants, our advisory committee and partner organizations, and our host Broadcast Coffee – for contributing to an outstanding kickoff for our community visioning process. About 35 of us participated in this positive, forward-looking discussion for how we can build a better Promenade together.

A more detailed recap of the event, as well as photos, are soon to come, but in the meantime, please complete the following Survey Monkey poll to share your ideas for the Melrose Promenade (for both those who could and those who couldn’t attend in person).

We are kicking off our series of three community visioning meetings tonight at 6pm at Broadcast Coffee (1623 Bellevue Ave.) Tonight’s session will be led by our fabulous team of consultants: the Berger Partnership, Weinstein | AU, and Schemata Workshop. And, we will be joined by guests from the City of Seattle.

We will be looking at various sections of our future Promenade, identifying our hopes, dreams, and desires for what we hope Melrose will one day become.

Spread the word: Tell your friends and neighbors! Looking forward to seeing you all there!

Want to help create the vision for transforming Melrose Avenue into the Melrose Promenade? NOW is the time to get involved! Our first community visioning meeting will be Thurs., Jan 24, at 6pm at Broadcast Coffee (1623 Bellevue Ave., just south of E. Pine St.)

Any and all community members are encouraged to participate in this meeting! The team of the Berger Partnership, Weinstein | AU, and Schemata Workshop, along with the Melrose Promenade Advisory Committee, will lead a series of activities to help us determine just how we want the Promenade to look.

This will be the first of three community visioning meetings that will eventually lead to a report outlining a detailed proposal for the Melrose Promenade.
